** Another story involved Toronto starting a pay-per-use system for city parks, which got a number of angry calls. This might not seem like a Poe's Law example at first, unless you're familiar with Toronto Mayor Rob Ford's ultra-conservative style of governance.

Many don't. They call in to comment or complain, which the show uses as part of the comedy.
